A case of paraganglioma arising within a parathyroid gland is reported. The lesion was an incidental finding in a block dissection of neck performed for squamous carcinoma of the pharynx. A well-circumscribed lesion, exhibiting the characteristic pathological features of a paraganglioma, was embedded within the right inferior parathyroid gland. Due to its location, the chief histological differential diagnosis was an unusual variant of parathyroid adenoma. Immunohistochemistry and electron microscopy assisted in reaching a diagnosis. This, as far as we are aware, is the first reported case of a paraganglioma of the parathyroid gland.
本文报道了一例发生于甲状旁腺的副神经节瘤。该病变是在因咽鳞状细胞癌行颈部大块切除术中偶然发现的。一个边界清晰、具有副神经节瘤特征性病理表现的病变包埋于右下甲状旁腺内。因其位置关系,主要的组织学鉴别诊断为甲状旁腺腺瘤的一种不常见变异型。免疫组化和电子显微镜检查有助于明确诊断。据我们所知,这是首例关于甲状旁腺副神经节瘤的报道病例。
